Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is a noninvasive imaging modality of cardiac structures and vasculature considered comparable to invasive coronary angiography for the evaluation of coronary artery disease (CAD) in several major cardio...
BACKGROUND: Recently developed artificial intelligence-based coronary angiography (AI-QCA, fully automated) provides real-time, objective, and reproducible quantitative analysis of coronary angiography without requiring additional time or labor.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between systemic sclerosis (SSc) clinical features and the extent and progression of coronary artery calcifications.
To investigate the impact of the deep-learning-based CT fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) on clinical decision-making and long-term prognosis in patients with obstructive coronary heart disease. In this single-center retrospective cohort study, cons...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been proposed to improve workflow for coronary artery calcium scoring (CACS), but simultaneous demonstration of improved efficiency, accuracy, and clinical stability have not been demonstrated. 148 sequential patients...
OBJECTIVES: This study expolored the relationship between perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) radiomic features derived from coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and the presence of coronary artery plaques. It aimed to determine whether PVA...
This retrospective study explored the association between circulating cell-free plasma telomere length (cf-TL) and coronary artery disease (CAD) and heart failure (HF). Data from 518 participants were collected, including clinical and laboratory data...

BACKGROUND: The angiography-derived non-hyperemic pressure ratio (angioNHPR) is a novel index of NHPR based on artificial intelligence (AI) that does not require pressure wires. We investigated the diagnostic accuracy of angioNHPR for detecting hemod...
PURPOSE: Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) is well established for the diagnostic evaluation and prognostication of coronary artery disease (CAD). The growing burden of CAD in Asia and the emergence of novel CT-based risk markers highlight the need for ...
In the last decade, artificial intelligence (AI) has influenced the field of cardiac computed tomography (CT), with its scope further enhanced by advanced methodologies such as machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL). The AI-driven techniques le...
